The State Duma proposed to extend the payment period for child care allowances. This level of support should not be provided for up to a year and a half, as now, but until the child reaches the age of three or until the parent goes to work, writes TASS and quotes the author of the initiative. According to the Mishnah, the period of one and a half years is determined based on the fact that at this age the child starts going to daycare and the mother returns to work, but as a rule, these conditions usually do not coincide. At the same time, the family's expenses for food, clothing and educational activities increase, and frequent illnesses of children make it difficult for the parent to return to work. The lower house of parliament is sure that women will positively value the income of payments before they go to work. Do you support the initiative? - Yes - No Photo: Gennady Cherkasov.
